I don't know that there are any official RB user groups, though I
know users sometimes meet up here and there. I think regional user
groups is a great idea, though. You could find a free meeting room
at a public library, all bring your laptops, and show off whatever
you're working on -- then show how it works under the hood, swap
tips, get advice, etc.
You could then talk about outreach activities, like hosting a "learn
to program in 2 hours!" workshop for the community. That would help
grow your group -- probably a concern since only a small fraction of
the users in any area will bother to join a user group, even if they
manage to find out about it.
If anyone is interested in starting such a group, I encourage you to
join the NUG mailing list and discuss it there. Be sure to include
what region you're in and how far you'd be willing to travel. Maybe
you'll find that you overlap with another NUG member, and there you'd
have the beginnings of a user group already!
Best,
- Joe
